Hi

Hi,
I am a recent convert to VW having recently purchased a 2012.5 passat wagon. 118 TSI.
It's my first european car and i have to say i am very impressed. i have only really owned Holden's (GM Product) in the past, mostly v8. I use the car for my work as a sales rep and enjoy driving it every day. I do a lot of highway driving and have noticed recently that there has become more noisy in the rear. There is a bearing type rumble that get louder with speed. I don't think i am imagining this. Has any one else had a similar experience?
It may be the tyres as they are now 40k old and not a well known brand but without changing them it is hard to access.
Any opinions or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Welcome mate. Sounds like uneven tyre tread wear.....that can cause a bearing type noise..
